| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We reported that casein, fibroin, siren, and actin, which are contained in foods or cosmetics, could promote amyloid b protein fibril formation in vitro. The objective of this study is to investigate whether the fibrils of these peptides can promote cerebral b-amyloidosis in vivo. We made the fibrils of casein and actin in vitro, and injected them into Alzheimer's disease (AD) model mouse brain. Furthermore, intraperitoneal injection was also performed. One year after the injections, we evaluated amyloid b protein (Ab) deposition in the mice brain. We found a little Ab deposition on the blood vessels in AD model mice injected casein into the brain. We will continue to evaluate Ab deposition of the mice brains.
